I near wet while watching, the laughs stop and a total body revulsion/sick took over....don't remember WHY I found this. The absolute evil VS the virus of insanity of our now...damn.
Love the twisted humor of the song, especially paired with the North Korean film clips, but I'm completely mad about the little girl doing her best Shirley Temple imitation. How did you ever find her? Mad props, folks.
There, you didn't ruin it - you even managed to preserve the naivety of the original. I've long thought that I'd like to have that Monty Python song at my funeral; now I want your version. Terrific!
I cannot imagine the amount of hours you spent watching various concerts to find a suitable match to the song. You're incredible. Edit: I was curious because of your name so checked out your channel and was pleasantly surprised you were consistent with your quality content. I'm happy i was recommended this channel. Lol. Subbed.
North Korea is definitely better than many other countries, I will be there for vacation again soon, and possibly I will buy an house over there too, before most of the world realizes about the media scam and propaganda against it, and how good actually is to live there, especially now with so few people in it.
Take a moment and really think about how unbelievable this is. Not only that North Korea exists, but that it exists right now. An entire country of hostages. Absolutely insane.
I'm reminded of the stories of events with Stalin speaking, where the applause wouldn't stop for an extremely long time because nobody dared be the first one to stop.
North Koreans inspire me to be positive inpite of what life throws at me, and this rendition is one of the best that I have ever seen. Thank you Supreme Leader for your this arrangement.
LOL so amazing...keep up the great work :) Snorked my drink just now when this came on...well done!! Love the Gracie Films touch at the end there, for us "old timers" :p
It is settled then. I am moving to North Korea. This video really pushed me over the edge, and I feel really good about this decision now. Looks like such a happy place!
Agreed. So much variety of fashion, expression and freedom coupled with an oversupply of healthy food. For me, though, I prefer a society more regulated, ordered and controlled. And a little more regimentation. Best stay where I am.

I don’t know why, but it works so well.
That outro took me back to being a kid in the 80's again so fast I think I have whiplash.
Gracies film is still big I guess since the Simpsons is still ongoing.
@@Delirium55 90s you mean?
Not that I haven't seen it millions of times but refresh me, what's it from again?
The frightening thing here is that those who grew up in that environment thinks that it is both impressive and normal and see nothing wrong with it.
There's a lesson here, and I'm not going to be the one to figure it out.
I physically jumped up and cheered at the slide whistle part. A salty wet tear rolled down my cheek.
Amazing. Leaving a good Yelp review right after this.
The slide whistle sound was produced by The Glorious Leader himself!
Tim for you eh? always a suprise
If it's in North Korea then it's "Help"
Слава Советской Армии!

A salty wet tear rolled down your cheek?
You wasteful bastard. Those poor Norks could have eaten that tear.
Well done. You've managed to invoke within me love, hatred, anger, pity, and fear all at the same time.
bump
Mr Bump please!
is that all?
I near wet while watching, the laughs stop and a total body
revulsion/sick took over....don't remember WHY I found this.
The absolute evil VS the virus of insanity of our now...damn.
0:46 That little girl is simultaneously adorable and really creepy at the same time, and I don't know what to make of it.
Especially the parts with the kids, you can tell they’re smiling for their lives
Mind control is scary. (Plus it looks like she gets the best food).
Love this! Thank you Erik Idle
Love the twisted humor of the song, especially paired with the North Korean film clips, but I'm completely mad about the little girl doing her best Shirley Temple imitation. How did you ever find her? Mad props, folks.
There, you didn't ruin it - you even managed to preserve the naivety of the original. I've long thought that I'd like to have that Monty Python song at my funeral; now I want your version. Terrific!
Benny Hill considered funnier than Monty Python by two TV stations-- WOR and WLVI.
I cannot imagine the amount of hours you spent watching various concerts to find a suitable match to the song. You're incredible.
Edit: I was curious because of your name so checked out your channel and was pleasantly surprised you were consistent with your quality content. I'm happy i was recommended this channel. Lol. Subbed.
Thank you! I really appreciate it.
@@ThereIRuinedIt Yes, very quality content. TIRI is a master at doing this.
I'm glad I read your edit because otherwise I wouldn't have looked at the channel. "Straight Outta Compton" immediately convinced me to subscribe
What are you talking about? He simply recorded it off N Korean television 😭😂
Very kind comment. nice one
This feels like itd be in a comedy about north korea, like the interview.
I come back to this video every now and then to look at the bright side of life
You mean "bright side of death"
Yeah I could always be in North Korea. Makes my life feel pretty good.
I like how the North Korean general’s uniform is loaded down with as many “medals” as possible, all across and down to his belly 😂
They serve as body armor…
they are not medals, they are microphones.....aimed at each person in the audience.....never let your guard down....
the more medals, the sooner you die in one of Kim's tantrums.
They gets a medal fer showing up 😉
@@derrickharvey295 good one!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
this seems like such a wonderful country, clearly one built on the foundation of virtuous morals and fair treatment of its people
Indeed, a very different history from my American people
@@antoniohenrique5750definitely 'different"
North Korea is definitely better than many other countries, I will be there for vacation again soon, and possibly I will buy an house over there too, before most of the world realizes about the media scam and propaganda against it, and how good actually is to live there, especially now with so few people in it.
@@wlonsdale1what's the implication there
I agree with this statement
I just love this send-up. I laughed and laughed. But I know that life is no laughing matter for most people in the Hermit Kingdom.
"Always look on the bright side of death" was never so accurate until now
Who wouldn't sing along with this classic. It's manditory.
From a country that required everyone to cry when this current whip-jack's father died. Or be shot. Pretty good incentive to let them flow.
Smile or die😏
The whole world knows they're fakes but yet they still put on a show. Sad.
Take a moment and really think about how unbelievable this is. Not only that North Korea exists, but that it exists right now. An entire country of hostages. Absolutely insane.

Blame Truman.
…..it’s really not that unique when you consider thr situations around the world
I'm sure China likes that NK get so much attention.
Whenever I think I'm having a bad day, I'll think of how this video creeped me out and scared me. People LIVE THIS
Unironically a very good version. The brass slaps
I like the inclusion of Tim from Grand Illusions at 0:38
It's amazing what can give this auld woman a giggle on a grim day. This was just ... positively Pythonesque.
I pull this masterpiece out every few months. But I always make sure I pee first.
The key change into the marching chorus line got me. Bravo
"Dude, why do you keep clapping?"
"I CANT STOP CLAPPING"
"Yes you can"
"HES WATCHING"
I'm reminded of the stories of events with Stalin speaking, where the applause wouldn't stop for an extremely long time because nobody dared be the first one to stop.
You deserve all the editing awards. As someone who’s done sync editing, this is amazing.
Holy scheit....I was watching The Voice and then I ended up with this! What a world we live in....lol!
North Koreans inspire me to be positive inpite of what life throws at me, and this rendition is one of the best that I have ever seen. Thank you Supreme Leader for your this arrangement.
😂😂😂
My life is complete! I need nothing more from the world now that I've seen this perfect little gem.
What a sad life you must have lived.
@@ronlacker326your mom
@@Angela.Perkins cute insult, but no insult will cover for your pathetic life. Cry more.
@@Angela.Perkins …Ok?
My thoughts exactly!
1:00 I see that North Korea has a very big Silly Walks ministry!
I’ve gone through all your videos and this one is my personal favorite! Hilarious! 😂 😂😂
What an amazing performance, every one of them deserves a medal.
What’s one more medal added to the collection?
@@jaygodfrey4853 Eventual chronic back problems. 😆
some of those generals be getting so many medals the medal inflation is worse than February 2019 Venezuela
*a meal
😂
I don't know what to say other than I will continue watching this on a loop for the next half hour.
I m doing the same
The goose step is one thing but damn it. That stuttered goose step… is just so beautiful!! Chills!!! 👏👏👏👏👏 Whoah.

LOL so amazing...keep up the great work :) Snorked my drink just now when this came on...well done!! Love the Gracie Films touch at the end there, for us "old timers" :p
It is settled then. I am moving to North Korea. This video really pushed me over the edge, and I feel really good about this decision now. Looks like such a happy place!
Agreed. So much variety of fashion, expression and freedom coupled with an oversupply of healthy food. For me, though, I prefer a society more regulated, ordered and controlled. And a little more regimentation. Best stay where I am.
I love that no matter how incredible you are at these, you couldn't find video of a north korean man with a slide whistle XD
😆 I looked. I would have settled for Chinese too. Not a big slide whistle culture.
Also, the choir at 0:24 is actually Chinese, although in the original footage they were singing a song from DPR. Korea
Very nice. And they all sing without an accent! Fabulous! Thank you.
fantastic rendition of one of the greatest movie songs of all time
